You just need to shop deals.

You can build one at microcenter for a similar proce to a ps5. The issue you run into is like for like parts.

For instance the ps5 uses a zen 2 processor which would be the 3x00 series ryzen but on the pc both the 5x00 and 7x00 chips are out on the pc.

So if you want like for like you can even save more money by buying used. You can get a used ryzen 3700 for $50 and a mother board for $50. You can buy ddr4 3200 ram 16 gigs new for $40. Sp you are looking at $140

You can get a used Radeon 6600xt for $170

So you are now at $310. Microcenter has 1tb nvme drives for $50. So $360

That leaves you $140 for case / power supply

Of course I'd suggest anyone who wants to build a pc jncest a bit more and got worh a ryzen 7700 with ddr 5 and either an rdna 3 or love lace gpu. But that will be closer to $1k
